“Surgeons have to equip themselves with the latest techniques to keep up with modern day challenges,’’ G. Siddesh, national president of Association of Surgeons, said in Belagavi on Monday.
He was speaking after inaugurating the 40th Continued Medical Education (CME) series at KLE Centenary Convention Centre, Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, in Belagavi.
Medical science is evolving and the medical fraternity must keep itself abreast with the latest skills, knowledge, techniques and should update learning abilities, he said. Exchange of thoughts, ideas and innovations are part of the learning process which ultimately culminate in developing surgical skills. These can be achieved in CME sessions, he said.
